Pixelated Sausage - Attack the Backlog - November 05, 2023 18:00 ★★★★★ - 2 ratings
This episode of Attack the Backlog is all about Paratopic, a game I can't quite explain, where jump cuts are plentiful as you play; a game you could finish in just one day, in just one sitting, in fact, I say; a game I recommend despite my haze, for fans of David Lynch, Twin Peaks, and his craz...

Tales from the Backlog - October 11, 2023 04:00 - 1 hour ★★★★★ - 36 ratings
Iron Lung, developed and published by David Szymanski in 2022, was a game I was sure I would never play.

I got into gaming in the 1990s, but my introduction to gaming was handheld consoles like the Game Gear and Game Boy, not PC games (aside from whatever my schools had in the computer labs), so the golden era of PC point-and-click adventure games completely missed me.
